| Problem description: | |
This fix adds support for specifying DEFAULTIF = NULL on a field
definition on the INGEST command. This provides an equivalent
to load/import modifier usedefaults. The extension to the
grammar of the DEFAULTIF clause on the INGEST command is as
follows:
|--DEFAULTIF-+------------+-=-+-- char--+-|
'-(position)-' '-- NULL --'
DEFAULTIF = NULL
Specifies that if the field is empty, then the utility considers
the field value to be the default value of the table column to
which the field is assigned. A field is considered empty if any
of the following is true:
- When the input format is DELIMITED and any of the following is
true:
-- There are two adjacent delimiters.
-- There are two delimiters with only blanks between them and
the NOTRIM option is not specified.
-- The record ends at the end of a previous field.
- When the input format is POSITIONAL and the record ends at the
end of a previous field. | |
